GPL/VROC/Fararri

4 posts by 4 people · 26 Jan 1999 - 28 Jan 1999

Here's some odd questions.... I'm most comfortable with the Fararri. At WGI I finnaly hit a 1:06. Woohooo! My problem with it however is that I'm not sure of where I should be shifting (rpm). At the moment my shift point is at 12:00 on the tach. I'll assume that that's 10,000 rpm(?) I have the very basics of setup knowledge, or, I know if I change this item I should get that result. I just haven't a clue when it comes to gearing. Any help with understanding the gearing issue would be greatly appreciated. VROC. Yesterday I downloaded everything to race online with. Ran a couple races with major warping. Today I read everything on the VROC site as to setting up my computer and dialup for online racing. Now that I'm setup that way I can't find anyone to race during the times I have the best connection to.. (9:00am - 1:00pm EST) After 1:pm my connection gets worse and worse. To the point where by 6:pm if I disconnect, I'll get nothing but bussy signals till nearly 11:pm. AND it takes forever to to load up a new web page. You get the point.. What I'm after is a day and time durring the week that there will be a few drivers online waiting to race GPL. when would that be? Mike Barlow MikeBa

When you want to know the upper limit of shifting, just take a ride with an AI driver riding the car of your choice.... Remco
% Here's some odd questions.... I usually attempt to host a few races on and off all day Thursday.
